    Facebook Bans Gun Owners, Allows Kitten Torture Video

    Facebook Bans Gun Owners, Allows Kitten Torture Video

    Facebook has no problem with a kitten torture video on its site, but when Facebook users talk about guns, the social media giant will censor them with zeal.

    Recently a video was posted on Facebook showing two men lighting a helpless kitten in a bucket on fire, but after multiple users flagged the video, Facebook told them it “doesn’t violate our Community Standards.”

    “I was going through Facebook and I saw this video,” user Kieran Dunwel told the Daily Mail. “I clicked on it, watched it and I was disgusted.”

    “I reported it to Facebook, it took five or six hours for them to get back to me, and they said it was perfectly fine to have it on there.”

    However, when users attempt to talk about guns or post pictures of firearms, Facebook hits them with “Community Standards” violations.

    A few days ago, gun rights activist Gerry Emery was banned from Facebook after sharing an article explaining the ways in which Connecticut’s gun ban is worse than Hitler’s gun ban.

    Facebook said Emery’s post, which also included an image stating that gun control helped make the Holocaust possible, “doesn’t follow Facebook Community Standards.”

    “You’re temporarily blocked from posting,” Facebook told Emery. “This temporary block will last 30 days, and you won’t be able to post on Facebook until it’s finished.”

    “You’ve repeatedly posted things that aren’t allowed on Facebook. Read the Facebook Community Standards to learn what kinds of posts aren’t allowed.”

    Similarly, last year Facebook deactivated the page of a Pennsylvania gun store without warning after the store’s owner announced his intent to raffle off an AR-15.

    “Our Ad Guidelines prohibit promotion of the sale of weapons and the Ad Guidelines apply to Pages with commercial content on them,” a Facebook spokesman told Vocativ. “Ads may not promote the sale or use of weapons, ammunition, or explosives.”

    Facebook even expanded this policy back in March by preventing users under 18 from seeing the official pages of gun shops, effectively placing gun-related content in the same category as porn.

    Gun Control Laws arent about stopping violence, they are about restricting the Rights of the People.

    The FAILURE of the United States Government to operate and maintain an
    Honest Money System , which frees the ordinary man from the clutches of the money manipulators, is the single largest contributing factor to the World's current Economic Crisis.

    The Elimination of Privacy is the Architecture of Genocide

    Belief, Money, and Violence are the three ways all people are controlled

    How stupid and annoying for Facebook users. Maybe we should start a social networking site or system without such restrictions?

    FB is run by satanic $#@!s.

    Be just and fear not, for the day of reckoning is soon to be upon us. In the end, nobody is getting away with anything.

    There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

    It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

    Our words make us the ghosts that we are.

    Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.

    Wonder if facebook would retain a video if these two fine citizens were lit up. It would be the same heat, so I don't see the difference.

    Or you could just avoid Facebook altogether.

    Fox News reported yesterday that Walmart is the largest seller of guns in the U.S., and of course they are allowed to continue advertising on Facebook. This is all about driving small business into the ground and giving monopolies to the giants. Hyatt Gun Sales in North Carolina had their Visa/MasterCard/AMEX privileges suspended a few months ago in an effort to drive them out of business. Not so for Walmart.
